Abstract
A load center comprises a common instantaneous tripping unit that works on a principle of solid state switching. The load center further comprises a plurality of branches of branch circuit breakers each of which is coupled to the common instantaneous tripping unit via a corresponding high power connection and a corresponding low power connection such that the common instantaneous tripping unit feeds the plurality of branches at the same time. The common instantaneous tripping unit interrupts a short circuit fault in an interruption time which is significantly reduced thus reducing or eliminating chances for a personal injury during the short circuit fault.
